Open AccessElectrophysiological properties of anion exchangers in the luminal membrane of guinea pig pancreatic duct cells
The pancreatic duct epithelium secretes the HCO3−-rich pancreatic juice. The HCO3− transport across the luminal membrane has been proposed to be mediated by SLC26A Cl−–HCO3− exchangers. To examine the electrophys...

Open AccessUse of PIXE/PIGE for sequential Ca and F measurements in root carious model
The progress of caries has conventionally been evaluated by checking changes in mineral density using transverse microradiography (TMR). Recent advances have seen development of a new measurement system, using...

Open AccessOrdering of mutations in acute myeloid leukemia with partial tandem duplication of MLL (MLL-PTD)
Partial tandem duplication of MLL (MLL-PTD) characterizes acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients often with a poor prognosis. To understand the order of occurrence of MLL-PTD in relation to other major AML mutatio...

Open AccessThe adenosine A2B receptor is involved in anion secretion in human pancreatic duct Capan-1 epithelial cells
Adenosine modulates a wide variety of biological processes via adenosine receptors. In the exocrine pancreas, adenosine regulates transepithelial anion secretion in duct cells and is considered to play a role ...

Impact of diabetes and glycaemic control on peripheral artery disease in Japanese patients with end-stage renal disease: long-term follow-up study from the beginning of haemodialysis
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients with diabetes have been regarded as being at the highest risk of cardiovascular disease. We therefore investigated the relationship between diabetes and the incidence of...
